Laddie is the pretty, young wo-
man announcer with C.hCT., To-

ftuba, in 103u of an English mot-
her and French father, Ladclic
first showed ler defiant spirit by

of two her family mored down to
the heart of the coruhelt in Spring-
field, Ohio, where I.addie •re-
amainecl until elle was thirteen,
and from there to Montreal,
Quebec, where her father and
mother still live.
A lively tomboy type, L• uddie

After High School, Laddie
spent three years - mechanically
typing eight !tours a day int a
large firm, while her thoughts
were pre -occupied in her first
love---dratuatics. Most of her
evenings were spent at the Mon-
treal Repertoire School of the
Theatre, taking classes in voice,
interpretation, nsalce-up and body -
technique. Laddie was associated
with several I.iltie Theatre groups
in Montreal. 'Then her thoughts
turned to radio, and so she took
private dramatic lesson, from
Eleanor Nichol of Clift, on radio
technique, diction, eir, Her first
radio -break came in a Summer
series of dramatics over C1%:AC,
I.addie headed for 'Toronto in
the .\ututnit of 19.13 and has been
in the Queen City ever eins,e. In-
side of two nsouth, she got her
first program of her own , ,
a fifteen -minute program three
111oraitigs a week over Cults,.
Along with that site did free-
lance dramatic work over the
CBC,

In June of 1043 she auditioned
for an announcer's position with
CEKCL, was selected- from a group
of hopeful young aspirants. incl

Laddie says announcing appealed
to her because •she teas told that
there would be a crisis every
twenty-nlinnles or so, and that's
ti'hat she thrives ort,
As fon hobbies, in addition' to

prety fair game of golf, and likes
nothing better than to do a bit
of horse -back riding . . and

she would like to play 'cot: Laddie

The Power of Hope
"Being therefore always of good
courage, and knowing that, whilst
'we are at home in the body, we
are absent frons the Lord (for we
wall: by faith, not by sight); we are
of good courage, 1 say, and are
willing rather to be absent from Lite

Lord," The Apostle i, more titan
willing to leave his earthly: taber-
nacle because lie desires to be with
Christ, If death carie before the
Corning of His Lord, Paul was
ready to accept death; for even
thought it does nut lying with • it

he will he at house with Christ
among the souls ttho wait for the
resurrection.
True Minister of Christ
"Por the love trf Christ eons
strainetlt us . , but unto him who.
fur -their sakes died and rose again."
It should be clearly noted that the
love of Christ referred to Isere is
that lute which led hint to die
for us on the moss. Wherever a
definite manifestation of Clsrias
ct
lite is rc`•r

is ever mentioned, 'The love that
constraineth tis is the love that
died, and •died for all because it
died for each,
"Wherefore we henceforth know
no man after the flesh: even though
we have known t'hriat after the

face to face, Paul was freed front
his knowledge ni Christ after tlm

The Spirit of God
"Wherefi.,re if guy titan f, la
Christ, he is a new creature: the
old things are pawed away; be-
lsold, they are become new." Worn
the Spirit of God comes into our
hearts than sees everything in a
new light, Old ideas. aims, stand-
ards pas- when We. become united
to Christ. In true conversion them;
isa change so complete that it is
nothing less than a new creation
wrought by the :nighty pottier of
the Spirit
"But all thing, are of God, .
and having committed unto us the
word of reconciliation." A full rev-
elation of -die love of God in Christ
having been made to the Apostles
it was ordained that by them and
through them the truth should he
made known to :til amen every-
